"This fish is a difficult fish to keep, water parameters should be like you are keeping the most delicate coral ever attempted. They need room to swim, places to hide, and rocks to graze on. They do not like other tangs, especially if the other tang is a new fish. I have tried 3 powder blues over about 10 years. The 1st one was when I was new to saltwater and it lasted about a week, and the second one I bought from the handpicked what you see is what you get section of a top end online retailer. I had it for 1 1/2 years. It was an amazing fish but suddenly stopped eating and withered away. The 3rd was from a top end online retailer. The fish was seemingly in perfect health. It ate everything I feed the tank except it would not touch nori(seaweed) no matter what form the food was in or what method of presentation I used, and it died after 2 1/2 months. Was perfectly fine when I went to bed but was dead when I turned on the tank lights in the am. I would love to have another one but i will not have another one. My tank is 7 ft long and the last 2 definitely were from the best collection areas for healthy powder blue tangs, and not from the indo region."
